Administrative history / Biographical sketch Note Daphne Marlatt (née Buckle) was born July 11, 1942, in Melbourne, Australia. She spent her early childhood in Penang, Malaysia, and immigrated to Vancouver, Canada, with her family in 1951. She studied creative writing at the University of British Columbia (UBC), where she became involved with the group of young poets known as the "TISH group," so named for the poetry newsletter they published and contributed to. In 1963, she married Gordon Alan Marlatt, and in 1964 earned her Bachelor of Arts from UBC. She moved with her husband to Bloomington, Indiana, and received an MA in Comparative Literature from Indiana University in 1968. In 1969, she gave birth to her son Kit, and in 1970 returned to Vancouver and separated from her husband. In 1971, she began teaching at writing and literature at Capilano College, where she also edited poetry for the literary magazine “The Capilano Review.” Simon Fraser University Special Collections and Rare Books Page 3 MsC 142 Daphne Marlatt Fonds Marlatt is the author of many books of poetry, including “Frames of a Story” (1968), “How Hug a Stone” (1983), "Touch to my Tongue" (1984), "Salvage" (1991), "Ghost Works" (1993), "This Tremor Love Is" (2001), “The Given” (2008), and “Liquidities: Vancouver Poems Then and Now" (2013). Her poetic style has been described as dense and deconstructionist, and her writing has addressed themes such as motherhood, feminism, lesbianism, and post-colonialism. Her work often defies classification, spanning genre categories such as autobiography, travelogue, essay, historical fiction and journal. She has published the novels “Zócalo” (1977) “Taken” (1996) and “Ana Historic” (1997), the art/poetry books “Winter/Rice/Tea Strain” (2000) and “Between Brush Strokes” (2008), and the chapbook “Seven Glass Bowls” (2003). She has written a Japanese Noh-inspired play “The Gull” (2009), and wrote the script for the short film "The Portside" (2009). Marlatt has also contributed to several collaborative projects and publications. The book “Steveston” (1974, republished in 2001) features poems by Marlatt and photographs by Robert Minden about the eponymous fishing community (now part of the city of Richmond, British Columbia) and its Japanese-Canadian community. Her book “Opening Doors in Vancouver's East End: Strathcona” (1979, republished in 2011), co-edited with Carole Itter, is a work that documents the history and culture of Vancouver's Strathcona neighbourhood through oral history interviews with community members. In 1988, she co-authored the poetry book “Double Negative” with her then-partner Betsy Warland. She also composed the libretto for the chamber opera “Shadow Catch” (2011), which explores the cultural history of Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside. Marlatt has frequently worked as a editor of both books and periodicals. In 1977, she co-founded the literary magazine "Periodics" with Paul de Barros. The magazine was an offshoot of TISH, and ran until 1981. In 1984 she co-founded "Tessera," a journal of feminist literary theory and writing, with Barbara Godard, Kathy Mezei, and Gail Scott. She also edited the book “Mothertalk: Life Stories of Mary Kiyoshi Kiyooka" (1997), a posthumous book by Roy Kiyooka, with whom she had a relationship in the 1970s. Alongside her writing and editing, Marlatt has served as an instructor of creative writing and literature, teaching at Capilano College, the University of British Columbia, the University of Victoria, the University of Saskatchewan, and Simon Fraser University. In 2007, she was writer-in-residence in the department of English & Cultural Studies at McMaster University, as well as the Markin-Flanagan Distinguished Visiting Writer at the University of Calgary. She was the 2008 Distinguished Poet in the Ralph Gustafson Poetry Chair at Vancouver Island University, and she led the Poetry Colloquium at the Sage Hill Writing Experience from 2008 to 2010. Marlatt has received numerous awards of recognition for her work. In 2006 she was appointed to the Order of Canada for her contributions to Canadian Literature. She won the 2008 Uchimura Naoya Prize for "The Gull," and the 2009 Dorothy Livesay Prize for “The Given.” In 2012 she was the 19th recipient of the George Woodcock Lifetime Achievement Award, which honours an outstanding literary career in British Columbia. She holds honourary doctorates from the University of Western Ontario and Mount St. Vincent University.

  • Parliamentary Poet Laureate
    Parliamentary Poet Laureate POETRY CONNECTION: LINK UP WITH CANADIAN POETRY Daphne Marlatt (1942 – ) was born in Australia but has lived most of her life in Vancouver. She was a key constituent of the early 1960’s “Tish” group at the University of British Columbia and has published numerous books of fiction and poetry. Since the 1970’s she has been a major participant in feminist writing and critique and, recently, has written for Noh theatre. Her poems here resonate with two earlier books (Vancouver Poems, 1972 and Salvage, 1991) in her ongoing interest in what might be considered a “poetics of renovation” that attends to texts of revision, rewriting, and extension. In 2006 she was made a Member of the Order of Canada.

  • Coach House Fall 2013 Catalogue
    Coach House Books Fall 2013 Blast off: This autumn’s Coach House titles are out of this world! Set your phasers to fun: it’s our catalogue for fall 2013. What can you expect from Coach House in the future? This fall, we’re boldly going where we’ve never gone before with a series of short nonfiction books, Exploded Views. Curated and edited by Jason McBride (Toronto Life, Globe and Mail, Hazlitt), Exploded Views is a series of original trade paperbacks dedicated to cultural issues meant to occupy that space (get it?) between magazine essay and exhaustive tome –not so much a 45 or an lp, but maybe an ep. Exploded Views will emphasize creative nonfiction and lyrical journalism on a veritable solar system of topics. In this catalogue, you can find our first four Exploded Views titles, books from authors Jeet Heer, Sarah Liss, Geoff Pevere and Shawn Micallef. Not to be left in the nonfiction titles’ vapour trail, this fall’s fiction and poetry is light years ahead of the pack. We’ll launch Matthew Heiti’s debut novel, a tale of crime and Canada’s north that packs more wallop than a Vulcan nerve pinch. We’ve also skyhooked new poetry collections from some of the best practicioners in the ’verse: David O’Meara, Margaret Christakos and Jon Paul Fiorentino. And we’ll fol- low that up with some close encounters of the evolutionary kind with Stephen Collis and Jordan Scott’s Decomp – part science project, part poetic response to nature – and a new edition of what is often considered one of the first graphic novels ever, Martin Vaughn-James’s The Cage.

  • Japanese Elements in the Poetry of Fred Wah and Roy Kiyooka
    Susan Fisher Japanese Elements in the Poetry of Fred Wah and Roy Kiyooka For nearly a century, Japanese poetic forms have pro- vided inspiration for poets writing in English. The importance of Japanese poetry for Ezra Pound and its role in the formation of Imagism have been well documented (see, for example, Kawano, Kodama, and Miner). Charles Olson, in his manifesto "Projective Verse" (1950), drew examples from Japanese sources as well as Western ones. Several of the Beat Generation poets, such as Gary Snyder, Allen Ginsberg, and Philip Whalen, studied in Japan and their work reflects a serious interest in Japanese poetry. Writing in 1973, p o e t and translator Kenneth Rexroth declared that "classical Japanese and Chinese poetry are today as influential on American poetry as English or French of any period, and close to determinative for those born since 1940" (157). Rexroth may have been overstating this influence; he, after all, had a role in creating it. Nonetheless, what Gary Snyder calls the "myste- riously plain quality" of East Asian verse has served as a model for the simple diction and directness of much contemporary poetry ("Introduction" 4). Writers belonging to these two generations of Asian-influenced American poets—the Imagists and the Beat poets—had no ethnic connection to Asia. But the demographic changes of the last few decades have produced a third generation whose interest in Asian poetry derives at least in part from their own Asian background. Several Asian Canadian poets have written works that are modelled on Japanese genres or make sustained allusions to Japanese literature.

  • Media and Trauma in the Work of Phyllis Webb and Daphne
    INTIMATE ENCOUNTERS WITH VIOLENCE: MEDIA AND TRAUMA IN THE WORK OF PHYLLIS WEBB AND DAPHNE MARLATT by © Collin Campbell A Dissertation submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of English Memorial University of Newfoundland May 2021 St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador i Abstract This dissertation looks at the work of Phyllis Webb and Daphne Marlatt, two West Coast Canadian poets who explored questions of media technologies and trauma violence in their work during the latter half of the twentieth century. This thesis takes up contemporary phenomenological and feminist analyses of the connections between media technologies and trauma, especially war violence, in relation to both the creative and practical careers of these two writers. Research into the histories of media technologies such as the letter, radio, photography, and television shows how these technologies have shaped our experience of violence both globally and locally, from nineteenth-century colonial garrisons in Canada to the internment of Japanese Canadians during the Second World War to the 1991 Gulf War. Ultimately, this dissertation suggests that these two poets offer new phenomenological interpretations of the ways in which media technologies shape our perception of historical, hidden traumas. ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank Dr. Joel Deshaye for endless patience and insight in supervising this dissertation. And thank you to the administrative staff and faculty of the English department at Memorial University. I am also endlessly indebted to the staff at Memorial University’s Queen Elizabeth II library for their dedication and ingenuity.

The critiques have been aimed at the "subject who knows," when in fact both See table of contents writers "assume the position of the subject who undergoes," rendering much of the negative criticism irrelevant, because misdirected. Theorists such as Foucault, Derrida, and Kristeva have argued that consciousness is a derivative Publisher(s) sociolinguistic product and that the critic should search out blind spots where ideology is received as common sense. Given the notion of the The University of New Brunswick subject-in-process, or the subject undergoing, these theoretical proscriptions are problematic. The work of Nichol and Marlatt contains a double tension ISSN between cultural givens and productive becoming.
